Ruth Chapman RIP
Ruth Chapman (Wife of Ken Chapman and Sandy Reed’s Mum) died recently after suffering with Terminal Cancer for the past 5 months. For the last 7 weeks she was completely bed bound. On the 11th June she was taken into Northwick Park Hospital and passed away in the early hours of the 12th June with Sandy by her side. Her funeral will take place on Wednesday, 30th June 2010 at 12pm at Breakspear Crematorium in the East Chapel. It will be followed by Refreshments at The Plough Beefeater, Bury Street, Ruislip (please let Sandy know if you are attending). Sandy and family thank everyone for their cards, words, prayers and support. Your continued prayers would be appreciated in the coming challenging months.
We (as a church) have lost several members of our Church family recently but our Christian love binds us together.  In Christ, Love Sandy x

FUNERAL OF DAVID PERRY will be on Thursday, 1st July 2010 at11am at St. Josephs. I know he would love as many of you there as possible to share his last 'service' with him and his family. You are warmly invited to join us after the church service at ROYAL NAVAL ASSOCIATION CLUB, LONG LANE, HILLINGDON (opposite old Master Brewer and at the back of the Health Centre). There will be a short committal service at Breakspear Crematorium for family. Arrival at RNA club from 12.30pm. I am so truly blessed by you all, my Church family, as my home is full of cards and flowers from so many of you and I treasure each word written. 
THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH from Iris and family.

Thank you to all our friends for your flowers and donations to Meadow House Hospice in memory of Bob. Thank you also to those who were able to attend Bob’s funeral, it was very much appreciated.
Chris, Christopher and Nick
